Weekend of Sweet Treats

So not everything sweet consists of sugar, right?

(E: 4 1/2, L: 8 mos.)

We had a lovely end to our week with family and friends, and some sugar thrown in for good measure. Auntie Karlee and Laila spent most of Thursday with us cheering E on in her final gymnastics class of the session, which was rewarded with a trip to Trophy Cupcakes!

We're also trying to break up the monotony at home with D gone (it's my experience that the busier I stay, the quicker time passes) and were invited to spend Friday night over at the Many's. Jen and I got in a real girl's night out, while the kids played and watched a movie with a sitter. Later in the day on Saturday E and I met up with all of them for pizza and a trip to Molly Moon's for ice cream. The line snaked all around the store and out the door (on a chilly March evening no less), but our patience was rewarded with sinfully delicious scoops of salted carmel, coconut chunk, and blood orange sorbet.
